XO reel’s stunning look fused with XLB reel’s bomb proof & powerful brake. The brake mechanism has been used for over 20 years with countless huge fish under its belt and now it’s mounted on this sturdy but beautiful reel family. On these reels this proven brake mechanism is sealed even better than in its predecessors. Two bigger sizes are aimed for heavy saltwater use. The brake power increases very linearly within 2,5 rounds, giving you impressive 8kg maximum force. The waterproofing utilises axle seals from German Ina and all bearings are from Japan. Merisuola 7-8 has the same large-arbour design and brake system as the XO #7-8. However, we have increased the brake power and capacity for this saltwater version.

The 89 is the ideal size reel for heavier single hand rods. The brake system is a slightly tamed version of the bigger and more brutal 910 & 1012 reels allowing us to make the ideal weight reel for the purpose with big enough maximum brake force. The reel’s frame and spool are machined elegantly thin for weight reduction but the “wine glass look” construction itself makes this reel super rigid.
